Consistent Sneha triumphs in 7th leg of women’s golf

Noida, Dec 4 : Amateurs took the spotlight as Sneha Singh recorded a wire-to-wire win in the seventh leg of the Women’s Pro Golf Tour (WPGT) here on Friday.
Hyderabad amateur teenager Sneha, who won a title on the WPGT in 2019, overcame a difficult start and then a potentially crippling triple bogey to hold nerves over the closing stretch to win by a comfortable margin of four shots. Her closing 74 gave her a total of 1-over 217.
Hunar Mittal, another talented amateur, carded the final day’s best score with an even par 72 that showcased a bogey free back nine of 2-under 34, as she aggregated 5-over 221.
With amateurs holding sway, Amandeep Drall was the top professional as she shot 2-over 74 and finished in a tie for second with Hunar Mittal. Amandeep, however, took the top cheque.
Two of the top pros expected to make a bid for the title, Ridhima Dilawari (80) in tied 12th and Diksha Dagar (81) in 15th place, just did not get going this week.
But both will be back next week for the eighth leg of the Tour.
